Rock Resorts to manage St Lucia's first private marina development

After an exhaustive search of over twenty of the world's most prestigious resort and hotel operators, Rock Resorts of Denver, Colorado has been selected to operate and manage The Landings St.Lucia, a luxury condominium resort on Rodney Bay in northern St. Lucia, and the island’s first private marina development. Their appointment will ensure the highest standards of service and hospitality for property owners and visitors a like.

Rock Resorts, the luxury brand of Vail Resorts Hospitality, was created by Laurance S. Rockefeller in 1956 and was acquired and re-launched by Vail Resorts in 2001. Today, Rock Resorts retains Rockefeller’s founding vision of creating exceptional accommodations that reflect the unparalleled beauty of their natural surroundings. Ranging from intimate mountain hideaways, to lavish seaside escapes, to hip urban boutiques, their distinctive resorts combine casual elegance, luxurious authenticity and thrilling outdoor adventures.

"We wanted the quality of operator which consistently meets 5 diamond standards in its hotel and dining operations." said Frank Heaps, C.E.O. of The Landing Limited. "Of all the operators we evaluated, Rock impressed us most with the high standard of all round service it provided to its guests, as consistently borne out by user surveys.”

The Developers of The Landings have spared no expense in creating the ultimate luxury resort. The private yacht harbour is located on the best beach in St. Lucia, offers an array of on-site resort amenities and has been beautifully landscaped for maximum privacy. The luxury residences provide spacious living areas and have two large terraces front and back. Luxury fixtures and fittings including Italian cabinetry, marble, granite counter tops, and European appliances complete the look of the lavish apartments.

Heaps continues; “Our primary selection criterion was for an operator who could match our investment with the highest level of luxury service, personal guest care and delivery of an overall excellent resort experience. We are delighted Rock has included us in their portfolio of luxury resorts and we look forward to continuing to work with their excellent team as preparations continue for a late autumn ‘07 opening."

Rock Resorts will begin taking holiday reservations at The Landings St. Lucia immediately.

Residences at The Landings are priced from $595,000 to $1,690,000.
